Project Week 2025

In the week of July 21, 2025, I had the pleasure of teaching 17 students of the Alstergymnasium in Henstedt-Ulzburg (Schleswig-Holstein) the basics of programming in Python for 4 days.

Under the motto “Fun with Turtles for Everyone, Basics of Programming in Python”, we looked at the fundamentals and quickly created our own programs for the text console and later also brought graphical output to the screen using the turtle (from the TKinter module).

The students learned quickly and were eager to participate. My examples, such as Schimpfolino, Harry Potter Quiz, and Turtle Race, were particularly popular. These examples were quickly adapted or served as inspiration for their own works. The material is linked as follows. Alstergymnasium
